2003 Hyundai Getz 1.3L Petrol · WM03 ADX

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 4 June 2025 at 62,498 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by successful repairs. In both 2024 and 2025, the car failed the initial test but passed shortly thereafter, suggesting that the owner is willing to rectify specifically identified faults once flagged rather than allowing them to persist. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 23-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,700 miles per year. There was a significant jump of 12,060 miles between May 2023 and May 2024, followed by another 10,888 miles in the year leading to the June 2025 test. This indicates a recent increase in usage after periods of lower activity. While low mileage generally reduces wear on drivetrain and engine components, it often leads to degradation of rubber-based parts and corrosion in the braking system due to lack of regular use. A buyer should focus on the structural integrity of the chassis and sills, as low-mileage cars from this era frequently suffer from hidden rust that does not always manifest until it progresses. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for perish, as these components can degrade when a vehicle sits stationary. Given the recent failures before passes, a thorough check of the brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear is necessary to ensure issues which caused the previous failures were properly addressed and are not merely masked.
